the saw. It can be prevented, as will be described in the

following, by appropriate cautionary measures.

a) Hold onto the saw with both hands and position your

arms so that they can absorb any energy from a kick-

back. Always keep to the side of the saw blade, and

never bring it into line with your body. In the case of a

kickback, the circular saw can jump backwards, but with

adequate caution the operator can deal with the energy

of the kickback.

b) If the saw blade jams or you want to interrupt your

work, then turn the saw off and keep the work piece still

until the saw blade comes to a full stop. Never try to re-

move the saw from the work piece or pull it out when the

saw blade is moving since then a kickback can occur.

Find out the cause of the jam and remove it.

c) If you want to start up a saw that is in the work piece,

centre the saw blade in the sawed groove and check that

the saw blade teeth are not caught in the work piece. If

the saw blade is jammed, it can jump out of the work

piece or cause a kick back when it is started up.

d) Support larger work pieces in order to reduce the risk

of a kick back due to a saw blade jam. The weight of

larger work pieces can cause them to bend. Large pieces

must be supported on both sides, both near the sawing

slot as well as on the edges.

e) Do not use dull or damaged saw blades. Saw blades

with dull or misaligned teeth increase the friction, in the

sawing slot, cause saw blade jams and kickbacks.

f) Before you start sawing, tighten the adjustments for

the cut depth and angles. If you change settings while

sawing, the saw blade can jam and a kickback is the

result.

g) Be particularly careful when making “inserted cuts” in

walls that already exist or other areas where you cannot

see what is behind the surface. When the saw blade is

inserted into the wall it can be blocked by hidden objects

and cause a kick back.

mSafety instructions for inserted circular saw use

a) Each time before you use the saw, make sure that the

protective covering closes. Do not use the saw if the pro-

tective covering cannot move freely and does not close

immediately. Never clip or tie the protective covering

in an opened position. If the saw should accidentally

fall to the ground, the protective covering can get bent.

Make sure that the protective covering can move freely

and does not touch the saw blade or other parts in all

cutting positions.

maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting edges sharp and clean. Properly maintai-

ned cutting tools with sharp cutting edges jam less often

and are easier to control.

g) Use power tools, accessories, and equipment accor-

ding to these instructions. Taking into account the wor-

king conditions and the work being performed.

The use of power tools other than those intended for the

tool itself can lead to dangerous situations.

5) Service

a) Only let qualiﬁed service personnel repair your tool

and always use original replacement parts. This guaran-

tees that the power tool remains safe to use.

m Safety instructions for all saws

a) DANGER: Do not put your hands in the sawing area or

on the saw blade. Keep your second hand on the extra

handle of the motor housing. If both hands are holding

the saw, neither can be injured by the saw blade.

b) Do not put your hands under the work piece. The pro-

tective cap cannot protect your hands from the blade

when they are under the work piece.

c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the work

piece. Less than one complete sawing tooth should be

visible under the work piece.

d) Never hold the work piece that is to be sawn in your

hand or over your leg. Make sure that the work piece has

a stable balance. It is important that the work piece is

held securely, in order to minimize the danger of contact

of a body part with the saw, loss of control over the saw,

or jamming of the blade.

e) Hold the equipment on the insulated handles, when

you undertake work in which the tool being used could

come into contact with hidden electrical wires, or its own

cable. Contact with a live power source can electrify the

metal parts of the tool and lead to an electrical shock.

f) When making a long cut, always use a stop chock or a

straightedge. This improves the accuracy of the cut and

reduces the chance that the saw blade jams.

g) Always use the correct size of saw blades and make

sure they have the right locating bore (e.g. Star shaped

or round). Saw blades that do not ﬁt the assembly of the

saw do not run correctly and cause loss of control.

h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade shims or

screws.

The saw blade shims and screws are designed especially

for your saw, for optimal performance and operating sa-

fety.
